The launch of OpenAI’s ChatGPT created a major buzz around artificial intelligence (AI) stocks.
ChatGPT is an AI chatbot software application that uses machine learning techniques to emulate human-written conversations. A hitherto niche subsector in the AI industry, this technology is called generative AI, and it's been making an impact on myriad industries, including marketing, security, healthcare, gaming, communication, customer service and software development.
The potential behind generative AI has been the primary driver behind a major stock rally that has helped the S&P and Nasdaq indices reach multiple new highs since 2023.
According to Fortune Business Insights, the generative AI market is expected to grow at a compound annual growth rate of 39.6 percent between 2024 and 2032 to reach an impressive US$967.65 billion.
Although investors can’t directly take a position in privately owned OpenAI, several technology stocks offer exposure to the expected growth in generative AI technology.
Below, the Investing News Network showcases 10 generative AI stocks that stand to benefit the most from the rise in advancements and adoption of AI chatbot technologies, plus seven smaller generative AI companies that may be perfectly positioned to profit from their advancements.
Data was gathered using TradingView’s stock screener. All market cap and share price data was current as of September 2, 2025.
These 10 tech giants offer investors exposure to generative AI by offering their own chatbots and generative AI products, developing the hardware and software necessary for AI and integrating AI into their product.
Market cap: US$4.15 trillion
Current share price: US$170.74
Nvidia is a pioneer and global leader in graphics processing unit (GPU) technology. The company designs the specialized chips used to train AI and machine learning models.
While it has been well known in computer and gaming spaces for decades, Nvidia's progress in the AI sector has been the biggest growth driver in recent years. The company currently holds the title of the world’s most valuable company, coming in ahead of rivals Microsoft, Apple and Alphabet.
Nvidia's new Blackwell GPU architecture, now in full production, delivers a significant performance leap for AI workloads compared to its predecessor. A new Blackwell Ultra system is set to be released later in 2025.
Generative AI's explosive growth is driving the market for chips designed by companies like Nvidia and Marvell Technology (NASDAQ:MRVL), as well as for memory chips from companies like Micron Technology (NASDAQ:MU), which are another important component to training generative AI systems.
Market cap: US$3.75 trillion
Current share price: US$505.12
The technology behemoth Microsoft has invested US$13 billion in OpenAI throughout the years, and the company's current AI solutions, Bing AI and Copilot, are based on OpenAI's technology. Microsoft has also partnered with Palantir to provide AI tools to US defense and intelligence agencies.
More recently, Microsoft's AI branch, dubbed MAI, has branched out. In August 2025, Microsoft officially launched its first proprietary foundation model, MAI-1-preview, for its Copilot assistance, as well as a new speech model, MAI-Voice-1, designed for efficient, real-time audio processing.
Market cap: US$3.41 trillion
Current share price: US$220.72
Apple has been incorporating its version of AI, Apple Intelligence, into its iPhones, MacBooks and Apple Watches. Its next major product reveal is scheduled for September 9, 2025.

Alphabet's subsidiary, DeepMind, focuses on AI research and development. Its AI system AlphaFold won the Nobel Prize in Chemistry in 2024 for its ability to predict the structure of proteins based on a protein's unique amino acid sequence.
AI continues to be embedded across Google's services as well. For example, AI Overviews displayed in Google Search results reach over two billion users per month as of mid-2025.
Market cap: US$2.40 trillion
Current share price: US$225.34
Amazon subsidiary and cloud-computing platform Amazon Web Services (AWS) evolved out of Amazon’s transition from an online retailer to one of the world’s largest technology companies. AWS’s wide range of services includes computing, storage, databases, networking, analytics, machine learning and AI.
AWS has many AI business tools on offer across four verticals: AI services, AI platforms, AI frameworks and AI infrastructure. Generative AI is nothing new to Amazon, as the technology forms the basis of conversational experiences with Amazon’s all-too-familiar Alexa.
Since its launch in 2023, Bedrock, a service that enhances software with generative AI capabilities, has expanded its catalog of foundation models to include OpenAI's open-weight models and Anthropic's Claude 4. At its AWS Summit in New York, the company announced Amazon Bedrock AgentCore, an innovation to help businesses rapidly deploy and scale AI agents with enterprise-grade security and tool integration.
Market cap: US$1.85 trillion
Current share price: US$735.11
Meta has expressed its commitment to continued research within the generative AI sphere with an open-source approach to its software developments. The giant behind Facebook, Instagram and WhatsApp is one of the most influential companies in tech, sharing ranks with the likes of Microsoft and Alphabet.
Meta AI, which is built with Meta Llama 3, is integrated into Meta's apps and also exists as a standalone website. The company's products use machine learning to streamline Facebook ad campaign generation and help businesses reach the right consumers. This strategy has led to Meta's ad business being a primary driver of revenue.
Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg has maintained that increased spending on AI infrastructure is necessary to maintain its competitive position. The company has made massive infrastructure investments over the last year and has been aggressively hiring top-tier AI talent.
Market cap: US$632.83 billion
Current share price: US$225.30
Oracle is a tech company that's been around since the 1970s. In the early 2000s, it began buying up other software companies, and today it is one of the leading providers of cloud-based database management software. Its primary AI service, Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI) Generative AI, was released on January 23, 2024.
Oracle has positioned itself as a neutral platform, offering its customers a choice of top-tier models from various providers. It has recently expanded its offerings to include Google's Gemini models and has also deployed OpenAI's GPT-5 across its cloud applications and database portfolio.
Oracle maintains a long-standing partnership with Nvidia, leveraging its hardware for large-scale AI workloads. This collaboration has culminated in the company building a zettascale supercomputer using as many as 131,072 Nvidia Blackwell GPUs to tackle complex generative AI challenges.
Market cap: US$372.67 billion
Current share price: US$157.29
Palantir's generative AI strategy is centered on its Artificial Intelligence Platform (AIP), a core product designed to help governments and commercial enterprises integrate AI into their operations with a focus on security and human-in-the-loop control.
Rather than building models for general use, Palantir's approach is to provide a platform that enables customers to leverage large language models from various providers, like OpenAI and Google, within their own private, secure networks.
Market cap: US$252.86 billion
Current share price: US$241.73
Salesforce is a global leader in cloud-based customer relationship management software. In 2023, the company announced a strategy to embed generative AI across its entire product portfolio to transform how businesses interact with their customers.
In early 2025, Salesforce announced the retirement of its Einstein Copilot brand in favor of a new name, Agentforce, a fully autonomous AI agent that can handle complex, multi-step tasks across a company's sales, service and marketing operations. The company has reported that AI agents are handling up to 50 percent of customer support conversations, which has led to a significant workforce restructuring.
Market cap: US$268.49 billion
Current share price: US$67.80
Multinational digital communications firm Cisco Systems is a leader in IT and communications networks. Its strategy focuses on providing the hardware, software and security solutions enterprises need to build and deploy their own AI applications.

RemSense (ASX:REM) is looking to secure more strategic partnerships as the company eyes global expansion, according to CEO and Managing Director Warren Cook.
“We have a strong pipeline of services to deliver to our existing clients that's going to take us right up through to the end of the year and into the early new year. For our global growth, we see partnerships as a critical part of our strategy to give us scale and capacity to grow throughout other parts of the region,” Cook said in an interview with the Investing News Network.
RemSense’s 3D visualisation technology — called virtualplant — is used by some major companies, including Woodside Energy Group (ASX:WDS,NYSE:WDS) and Chevron (NYSE:CVX).
“(We’re) just growing globally, with projects in the US, Bangladesh and now our more recent one in Norway, and Newmont (TSX:NGT,NYSE:NEM,ASX:NEM), one of the largest gold companies in the world,” Cook said.
“Those are just the three tier ones, and then we've got other tier two, tier three customers who are very loyal to us, like Triangle Energy (ASX:TEG). We delivered services to the likes of BHP (ASX:BHP,NYSE:BHP,LSE:BHP), Rio Tinto (ASX:RIO,NYSE:RIO,LSE:RIO). So we're really putting a lot of effort into broadening our customer base, both in in tiers and globally.”

As global giants chase consumer-facing artificial intelligence (AI), Canada has adopted a different approach.
The northern nation has excelled in developing B2B AI solutions for enterprises, governments and research institutions. This discreet strategy aims to cultivate a trusted AI environment, fostering innovation and economic growth within Canada, while building a resilient ecosystem safeguarded from external influences.
While the spotlight often falls elsewhere, Canada’s AI strategy could present a unique opportunity for investors seeking long-term growth in the evolving AI landscape.
While public attention often gravitates toward chatbots and image generators, many of the most impactful AI innovations are systems that optimize supply chains, detect fraud in financial transactions or accelerate drug discovery.
Enterprise AI, as these systems are often referred to, offers solutions to complex challenges that are unique to large corporations, financial institutions and government entities.
A significant portion of Canada’s AI buildout has been focused on institutional or B2B use cases, even if business adoption has been slower compared to the US. The country’s AI approach involves an organized strategy largely guided by the government, conducive to creating AI products and services designed specifically for large organizations.
Canada's blueprint for AI adoption within federal departments is laid out in a report released earlier this year, which lists building a central AI capacity as the first of four key priority areas.
A related initiative, the Canadian Sovereign AI Compute Strategy, outlines how Canada will ensure it has the physical computing capacity to compete globally and maintain data sovereignty.
It includes a C$2 billion investment to build and provide access to domestic AI computing power and infrastructure. This initiative is a key focus for Evan Solomon, Canada's minister of AI and digital innovation.
Cohere, a privately owned leading Canadian AI company that specializes in enterprise-focused large language models, exemplifies the country’s strength in this space.
Founded in 2019, Cohere has become a prime example of a successful B2B strategy. The company develops highly specialized, institutional AI solutions for industries like finance, healthcare and logistics.
Its focus on privacy and security enables it to serve large markets needing specialized and secure solutions, providing enterprise-grade large language models and tools for custom AI applications.
Underscoring its growing success, Cohere secured US$500 million in an August funding round led by Canadian funds Radical Ventures and Inovia Capital, bringing its valuation to US$6.8 billion. The company has formed working relationships with several tech industry giants, including Oracle (NYSE:ORCL) and SAP (NYSE:SAP), and has onboarded former executives from Uber Technologies (NYSE:UBER) and Meta Platforms (NASDAQ:META). Global consulting firm McKinsey also works with Cohere to help its clients integrate generative AI into their operations.
A key part of Cohere's work is Cohere North, an enterprise-ready AI platform that Dell Technologies (NYSE:DELL) began offering to its enterprise customers this past May as part of a complete AI package.
In the financial sector, Cohere and the Royal Bank of Canada (TSX:RY,NYSE:RY) have partnered to introduce North for Banking, a secure generative AI platform designed to enhance productivity and data security specifically within the financial services sector. A January press release emphasizes the goal of speeding generative AI solutions.
This summer, Cohere teamed up with Bell Canada (TSX:BCE,NYSE:BCE) to supply specialized AI models to government and enterprise customers, with Bell providing the infrastructure layer with its AI Fabric network of data centers.
BUZZ High Performance Computing, a subsidiary of Canadian digital infrastructure company Hive Digital Technologies (TSXV:HIVE,NASDAQ:HIVE), contributes to the Cohere-Bell endeavor by providing NVIDIA (NASDAQ:NVDA) GPU clusters as the foundational hardware layer for large-scale AI workloads.
Cohere has also received backing from the Canadian government, with Ottawa signing a memorandum of understanding (MOU) with the company to integrate AI into public services on August 19.
The non-binding agreement acknowledges the company’s public sector ambitions and the government's interest in leveraging AI for productivity and domestic sourcing.
According to Cohere co-founder and CEO Aidan Gomez, this MOU represents “the beginning, hopefully, of our technology being rolled out quite broadly within the Canadian government.”
Cohere struck a similar agreement with the UK government in June.
Canada's approach to AI is built on stable, institutional-grade solutions and is championed by the administration of Prime Minister Mark Carney, offering a nuanced and attractive proposition for discerning investors.
Focusing on the B2B market provides a foundation of stability, as it offers stable, predictable revenue through multimillion-dollar, long-term contracts and full-stack solutions that ensure customer loyalty and economic resilience.
Many investments also have government support, providing a somewhat “de-risked” play for investors.
The Carney administration has made public commitments to incorporate AI into the public sector, promised to provide tax incentives for companies and said it will slash regulatory red tape on AI infrastructure projects like data centers.
The Department of Finance has already introduced draft reforms to the Scientific Research and Experimental Development program that would extend refundable tax credits to Canadian public companies.
Finally, the strategy is buoyed by a robust domestic investment landscape.
Canadian investors have historically provided strong financial backing for homegrown AI startups. Firms like BDC Capital, Real Ventures and MaRS Investment Accelerator Fund have taken the lead in terms of deal count, demonstrating a strong, homegrown commitment to fostering the Canadian AI ecosystem from its earliest stages.
Canada's stealthy AI strategy is cementing its role as a quiet yet formidable force in the global AI landscape.
Companies like Cohere, bolstered by initiatives such as AXL's initiative to launch 50 Canadian AI companies in the next five years, underscore a commitment to developing and retaining Canadian AI talent and intellectual property.
For discerning investors, this focus on stable, institutional solutions offers a significant and differentiated long-term growth story beyond the consumer AI buzz.

Artificial intelligence (AI) stocks saw continued pressure this week as concerns about overvaluation weighed on the sector ahead of NVIDIA's (NASDAQ:NVDA) results release for its second fiscal quarter.
The company beat Wall Street projections on revenue, earnings and profits, but shares still fell in extended trading on Tuesday (August 26) after it reported no H20 sales to China, where competition from domestic firms is heating up.
John Murillo, chief business officer at B2BROKER, suggested the pullback could present a short-term buying opportunity for high-quality names with strong fundamentals, but cautioned that it could be the start of a broader correction.
“However, the long-term potential of AI can’t be ignored,” he told the Investing News Network, emphasizing his preference for top players like NVIDIA and Palantir Technologies (NASDAQ:PLTR) over smaller, debt-leveraged firms.
Reports that DeepSeek will train its newest AI models on Huawei chips and Cambricon Technologies' (SHA:688256) 4,300 percent revenue surge underscore the shifting AI landscape. Still, optimism wasn’t absent: NVIDIA CEO Jensen Huang pointed to accelerating global demand and unveiled a US$60 billion buyback program to reassure investors.
“All in all, the sector’s long-term trajectory remains bullish, with AI adoption accelerating across industries,” said Murillo.

However, it wasn’t enough to reassure the public, and NVIDIA's share price fell over 4 percent between Wednesday (August 27) and Friday (August 29). As investors analyzed new inflation data that indicates tariffs are impacting prices, other AI-related stocks saw losses too, pulling the S&P 500 (INDEXSP:.INX) from its recent record highs.
With that, here's a look at some of the other drivers that shaped the tech sector this week.
In a US Securities and Exchange Commission Form 8-K filing dated August 22, Intel (NASDAQ:INTC) warns that the federal government’s 10 percent stake in its business could cause “adverse reactions,” including litigation from investors, employees, customers, suppliers, partners and foreign governments.
The company also discloses a clause in the agreement that would raise the government’s stake to 15 percent if the company fails to meet set manufacturing thresholds.
Moreover, the filing states that, if this agreement prompts other government bodies to seek similar stakes, the varied agendas could diminish the voting power of other shareholders.
The comments come after the White House announced last week that it would take a 10 percent stake in the company in a deal worth around US$8.9 billion. On Monday, (August 25), President Donald Trump suggested he might pursue similar agreements with other American companies, posting on Truth Social:
“I will also help those companies that make such lucrative deals with the United States. I love seeing their stock price go up, making the USA RICHER, AND RICHER.”
Meanwhile, White House economic advisor Kevin Hassett told CNBC that the deal is part of a broader strategy to create a sovereign wealth fund that may include additional companies.
Later, during an interview on CNBC’s Squawk Box on Tuesday, Secretary of Commerce Howard Lutnick said Pentagon officials are considering acquiring equity stakes in leading defense contractors such as Lockheed Martin (NYSE:LMT).
On Tuesday, Apple (NASDAQ:AAPL) invited media members and analysts to its next launch event, which is scheduled for September 9 at 10:00 a.m. PST.
The event, which will be live streamed from the iPhone maker's campus, is expected to be the venue for the introduction of the new iPhone 17 lineup and updated Apple Watch models.
The new iPhone series is rumored to include four models:
The new iPhones are also expected to feature a new "Liquid Glass"-based interface as part of iOS 26.
According to Bloomberg journalist Mark Gurman, who has a reputation for being one of the most accurate and prolific sources of leaks about Apple's future products, the company is planning three years of major iPhone redesigns, starting with the September release. Apple’s first foldable iPhone, code-named V68, is slated to arrive in 2026, according to Gurman. Apple's 2027 "iPhone 20" will feature curved glass edges to complement the upcoming Liquid Glass-based interface for iOS and other operating systems.
IBM (NYSE:IBM) and Advanced Micro Devices (AMD) (NASDAQ:AMD) said on Tuesday that they plan to collaborate to develop quantum-centric supercomputing.
The two companies, which have each fundamentally advanced the frontiers of quantum hardware and software, AI accelerators, CPUs and GPUs, said they will work together to “develop scalable, open-source platforms that could redefine the future of computing” by combining their strengths in quantum and high-performance computing.
“Quantum computing will simulate the natural world and represent information in an entirely new way,” said Arvind Krishna, chairman and CEO of IBM, adding that the firms' collaborative efforts will “build a powerful hybrid model that pushes past the limits of traditional computing.”
“We see tremendous opportunities to accelerate discovery and innovation,” said Dr. Lisa Su, chair and CEO of AMD.
In an interview with Axios, Jay Gambetta, IBM's quantum vice president, said he aims to get fault-tolerant quantum computers, a set of techniques and architectural designs that ensure a computation can proceed accurately even in the presence of errors, “by the end of this decade.”
During a cabinet meeting on Tuesday, Trump told reporters that Meta Platforms' (NASDAQ:META) Louisiana data center will cost the company around US$50 billion to build.
That's over 70 percent of the company’s projected CAPEX spending in its latest quarterly report.
“When they said US$50 billion for a plant, I said, ‘What the hell kind of plant is that?’” said Trump, revealing a photo of the proposed data center, Hyperion, superimposed over the island of Manhattan.
“When you look at this, you understand why it’s US$50 billion,” he added.
When the data center was announced, officials in Louisiana estimated the project would cost around US$10 billion. Meta has not confirmed this new estimate and declined to comment on Trump's remarks.
On Thursday (August 28), Commonwealth Fusion Systems, a leading nuclear fusion developer in the US, announced it has secured US$863 million in an oversubscribed Series B2 funding round.
Investors including Morgan Stanley (NYSE:MS) and NVIDIA contributed to this capital raise, which will facilitate the completion of Commonwealth's Spac fusion demonstration machine, as well as the commencement of construction on a new ARC power plant in Virginia.
“Investors recognize that CFS is making fusion power a reality. They see that we are executing and delivering on our objectives,” said the company’s CEO and co-founder, Bob Mumgaard. “This funding recognizes CFS’ leadership role in developing a new technology that promises to be a reliable source of clean, almost limitless energy — and will enable investors to have the opportunity to capitalize on the birth of a new global industry.”

NVIDIA (NASDAQ:NVDA) delivered another blockbuster quarter, reporting record revenue of US$46.7 billion for its second fiscal period as demand for artificial intelligence (AI) infrastructure continues to surge.
The chipmaking giant said sales rose 56 percent from a year earlier and 6 percent from the prior quarter, marking the ninth straight period of year-on-year revenue growth above 50 percent.
Meanwhile, NVIDIA's net income jumped 59 percent to US$26.42 billion from US$16.6 billion. Its adjusted earnings per share were US$1.05, beating analyst forecasts of US$1.01.
“Blackwell is the AI platform the world has been waiting for, delivering an exceptional generational leap — production of Blackwell Ultra is ramping at full speed, and demand is extraordinary,” said founder and CEO Jensen Huang.
“The AI race is on, and Blackwell is the platform at its center,” he added.
The company’s data center division once again fueled growth as it generated US$41.1 billion in revenue, 56 percent higher than a year ago. Roughly US$33.8 billion of that total came from sales of NVIDIA's GPUs, while US$7.3 billion was from networking hardware that ties together large AI computing systems.
Sales of NVIDIA's Blackwell processors, launched in May, rose 17 percent quarter-on-quarter. The product line has quickly become the backbone of NVIDIA's data center business, accounting for a majority of the segment's revenue.
Despite NVIDIA's strong numbers, company shares initially slipped in after-hours trading as some investors fretted about slower growth momentum in the data center division.
Regardless, the stock later pared its losses by turning positive on Thursday (August 28).
Overall, NVIDIA has surged 35 percent so far this year after nearly tripling in 2024.

The company is guiding for revenue of US$54 billion, plus or minus 2 percent, in the October quarter.
However, that forecast does not assume any shipments of the H20, a chip that was designed for the Chinese market, but is currently sidelined by export restrictions.
Colette Kress, NVIDIA's CFO, told analysts the company could ship between US$2 billion and US$5 billion worth of H20 processors this quarter if geopolitical conditions allow.
NVIDIA confirmed it had no H20 sales to China in its second quarter.
Instead, it benefited from releasing US$180 million in previously reserved H20 inventory to a customer outside of China, boosting reported revenue by US$650 million. The company previously said that the lack of H20 shipments cost it up to US$8 billion in potential sales in the second quarter alone.
Huang met with US President Donald Trump earlier this summer to lobby for licenses to export the H20, a chip that was developed specifically to comply with US trade restrictions.
Under a tentative deal, NVIDIA agreed to pay 15 percent of China H20 revenue to the US government in exchange for export approvals. However, the arrangement has yet to be codified into a formal agreement.
Beyond H20, attention has shifted to NVIDIA's newest flagship processor, Blackwell.
On Wednesday’s (August 27) earnings call, Huang said there is “a real possibility” of bringing Blackwell to China.
“We just have to keep advocating the importance of American tech companies to be able to lead and win the AI race, and help make the American tech stack the global standard,” he said. Huang estimates that China represents a US$50 billion opportunity for NVIDIA this year, with growth of 50 percent annually. He argued it is better for Chinese AI firms to use NVIDIA chips, even if modified, rather than being forced to rely on domestic alternatives.
Trump, however, has expressed caution. Speaking at a press conference earlier this month, he said, “The Blackwell is super-duper advanced. I wouldn’t make a deal with that.”
However, he said he could allow a “somewhat enhanced in a negative way” Blackwell chip to be sold to China, further suggesting that such a version could be slowed by 30 to 50 percent to comply with US restrictions.
Even without China sales, NVIDIA maintains a bright outlook.
Huang told analysts the buildout of AI infrastructure is still in its early stages, further projecting that global spending on AI infrastructure could reach US$3 trillion to US$4 trillion by the end of the decade.
Furthermore, large cloud providers, which remain NVIDIA's biggest customers, have announced plans to spend tens of billions of dollars per quarter on AI infrastructure, ensuring a steady pipeline of demand for the company's chips.
